The grains fall,
one by one,
carving moments
into memory.
We hold them,
watch them,
but never stop them.
Time flows on,
sand slipping
through our fingers.

The Grace of Reciprocity
The only unspoken understanding now is this: if you ignore me, I absolutely won't bother you. This isn't about being competitive or indifferent; it's about acknowledging the most basic truth of adulthood: relationships must be mutual, not sustained by stubbornness.

I have fallen in love with these words that you crafted here. May I put your words to a piano song?
Poem is just as wonderful as its name 💖 Time is fragile for sure 🙌
